Large Size Mittens? WHere to buy?

My son has hypermobility syndrome. He has major problem putting on gloves! The problem is that he is almost 7yrs old & I cant find any boys mittens in this size anywhere. I did see some snow ones on ebay but they are stupid prices & he will probably lose them in no time at all.

I would normally just knit him some but I myself have HMS & fibromyalgia & am having lots of problems at the moment and hurt everywhere so I am just not capable.

Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Thanks

HiI got my ds some mittens in Millets in age 7-10 years. It was a while ago, but I think they still do them.

Ski gloves are good agree with other poster. TK Maxx sell them fairly cheap, or next. xx
